Scenes of Kiwianna

Each shot needed to have all of the assets required for the shot to work. I made a file for each one by exporting my animatic out, which created a file that was all ready for me to use for each shot needed. I put each shot's rendered 3D background in, the characters and any assets needed for the shot and last of all I put the sky in. I picked a few different skies that were roughly the same colour, so that I could have a realistically looking sky in each shot that the sky was seen in.

The animation is the next thing that needs done, followed by the lip syncing and blinks put into the timeline. The only things left to do then are to render each shot out, edit together the first episode using Adobe Premiere Pro and putting sound effects and music into the project. I am doing the sound last because I started to run out of time, so rather than put the sound on my animatic, I decided to leave it until last. This is not the way that animations are created as animators are meant to animate to the sound rather than the other way around. I may have problems doing it this way around as I may have trouble matching the sound to the actions easily. I guess, I am going to find out one way or another!
